The 50 is more of a reality show that steals the best elements of the other well-known shows and mixes them in a volume that is more aggressive and rougher. The main concept of this new show is a combination of the mind games of Bigg Boss and the physical roughness of Roadies and the stress of survival-based competitions. Fifty influencers and celebrities are united in a large palace-like complex, where nothing is covered by a carpet, and no one is absolutely safe.

There is no interference and constant dependence with regards to popular votes to determine who remains and who is evicted as in Bigg Boss. In this case, the competitors will die or survive based on how they perform in the tasks, form alliances, and their individual choices. Each obstacle counts and a single failure can get one on his way. The mood is competitive at the very beginning, and there is not much space to be comfortable or slow in the game.

The most interesting thing about The 50 is the way the viewers are engaged. Rather than voting the contestants out, the audience is allowed to make predictions and support the contestant they deem as the winner. In case their player of choice makes it till the end, a single lucky viewer has the potential to win a huge amount of money, which adds a new dimension of excitement in addition to the drama in the screen.

Even at the very beginning, some powerful contenders have already been identified. Other players such as Prince Narula, Karan Patel, Shiv Thakare, Manisha Rani and Nikki Tamboli have found the balance between physical effort and social tactics as evidenced by their aggressive according to the experience they have had. Others are based on strength, others on clever alliances and that combination is what makes the show unforeseeable.

At its core, The 50 does not reshape reality TV- but it ups the ante. It has fewer lovely safety nets and sooner revenge and it will spill blood and create drama, competition and constant tension starting with the very first episode.
